Hidden Valley Inn is charming and reasonably priced. Our room was comfortable and newly updated. The pastries in the lobby each morning were delicious!

We stayed here two nights on our honeymoon trip while just passing through the area. This is a great, quiet, quaint spot in the Carmel Valley area. We enjoyed our stay here. The pool was warm and the yard games were a fun bonus. Thank you!

Really good visit. Liana was excellent. Loved the renovation. Power went out 11:08pm 7-23-23 in all the Valley. Pitch black. Pitch. very frightening. Each room needs 1) night light in bath and bedroom plus flashlight. Also, did not find extra needed plugs under the sink on right til end of second day. otherwise, I look forward to my next stay and have already recommended you to family and friends living in CV.

The pool is very nice and the property is well maintained. The room amenities are lacking. No mini fridge. Housekeeping was on request but came when asked and did a great job. They have pasteries for breakfast but forgot to order them one morning. A bowl of fresh fruit would have been nice. There is no visible option for recycling.

Very clean, quiet and nice staff. My only suggestion would be heating the pool, it was freezing! For the cost, you can’t beat it.

Loved it, we'll go back again!
The grounds are beautiful. The room was well appointed, comfortable, had everything we needed. Sitting outside all evening, taking in the ocean air was peaceful and relaxing. Our timing for arrival and departure were weird, the staff was accommodating and made it easy. That part of Monterey Co. is beautiful, and close to all the sights. Definitely recommend.

Pleasant stay
Hidden Valley Inn was a great option for us. It was clean and comfortable, although the bathroom/bathtub showed its age. The location is ideal and the grounds beautiful. The service was friendly, and add extra points for ice water and iced tea being available in the office and by the pool. Since there is no restaurant, it was especially convenient to have coffee and pastries in the office every morning at no extra charge. My only significant negative was the patio was literally a few feet from the patio next door so privacy outside was nonexistent.

This property is perfect for those stays where you need a clean site, close to your destination. The outside property was beautiful, and you cannot beat the view from the valley, looking up to the mountains. It's also close enough to Monterey or Carmel Beach, but secluded where you have your privacy without the crowds, commercial side of Monterey! Staff was also very attentive to follow-up to ensure your stay was going well.

Staff was very accommodating when we made a mistake on our reservation, they changed us to a new day with no issues whatsoever. The room and grounds were very clean, and the staff was super friendly. Fresh pastries in the morning were delicious, as well as the coffee and cold water/tea in the afternoons. Nice pool area, and several games to play around the grounds. A very minor hill to walk up, but otherwise quite easy and short walk into town, to explore dining and wine tasting. Had a great visit!

The bed was amazingly comfortable. The room has a back patio to the pool, which was nice. The front desk was very helpful and gave us a list of good spots to dine in the area. Only negative, there was no hot tub by the pool and the pool was not heated.
